Both are built the same, Allen is younger.
Pretty sure most everyone always assumed Allen would line up at DE in the 4-2-5 package. But no, Allen and Smith are not built the same; Smith is two inches shorter and 15+ pounds heavier...he's just a much more solidly built dude. Not to mention that SF moved him inside to DT for their nickle as often as not, so they really won't be playing the same role either.
